More than 20,000 visitors recently had the opportunity to admire one of Belgium's most unique works of art: a giant flower carpet made of more than half a million dahlias in the Grand Place in Brussels. This event became the center of attention for visitors from August 15-18.
Despite the intense heat on the first day and occasional showers, the carpet still maintained its brilliant beauty. According to the Organizing Committee, dahlias - the main flower chosen as this year's theme - have proven their incredible durability. This is the first time in the more than 50-year history that the carpet has been mainly made of this flower instead of the traditional begonias.
Admiring the panoramic view of the flower carpet from the balcony of Brussels City Hall is a unique experience that visitors cannot miss. For only 8 euros, visitors have the opportunity to admire a living work of art, created by the hands of talented gardeners.
The Brussels Flower Carpet is not only a cultural event that attracts tourists, but also a symbol of the city. Last year, the Brussels city government officially applied to have the event recognized on the UNESCO list of intangible cultural heritage. If recognized, this will be an important milestone, affirming the cultural and artistic value of the Brussels Flower Carpet on the international stage.
While waiting for the final decision from UNESCO, which is expected to be announced by the end of 2025, organizers are preparing for another flower event to take place in August 2025. "Flower Time" is a flower exhibition displayed in the City Hall and on the Grand Square, which will bring visitors new and exciting experiences.
The Brussels Flower Carpet is not only a work of art, but also a testament to the Belgian people's love for nature and art. This event has been enriching the cultural life of Brussels and attracting many tourists to visit.
